You’ve got to try this apple & feta crunch salad that everyone will love! It’s a crowd-pleaser with just the right balance of sweet, savoury, and crunch. Plus, it’s incredibly quick and easy to prepare.

The Origins of this Apple & Feta Crunch Salad

I stumbled upon this recipe thanks to my friend’s mom, who is undeniably the best chef out there. She’s always taking home-cooked meals to a whole new level. I’m especially obsessed with her homemade pizza that is out of this world! Promise I’m working on coaxing the recipe from her, so stay tuned for that. She made this salad for me a few times before I finally got around to making it myself, and now it’s become a staple in my kitchen.

It’s worth noting that she’s not only an exceptional cook but also the warmest and most hospitable lady I’ve had the pleasure of knowing. She’s always ready with delicious treats, a friendly hug, and an inquisitive spirit. I hope to become more like her!

What Makes This THE Perfect Easy Healthy Salad?

I’ve decided this is THE perfect salad for a few reasons:

Green Base: It starts with a fresh, crisp bed of romaine that forms the foundation of the salad.
Something Sweet: The addition of sweet, juicy apples provides a delightful contrast to the greens and adds a burst of natural sweetness.
Something Savoury: The savoury element comes in the form of feta cheese, which not only provides a rich and creamy texture but also contributes a satisfying savoury note.
Something Crunchy: To create a satisfying crunch, this salad incorporates a mix of hemp and sunflower seeds.
Sweet and Salty Dressing: And for the finishing touch, this easy homemade dressing strikes a perfect balance between sweet and salty, combining Maple Syrup, Apple Cider Vinegar and Olive Oil.

These components combine to create a salad that’s not only well-rounded in flavour and texture but also incredibly satisfying and delicious.
